Projects and accounts

How do I apply for a project?

Use the project registration form to set up a new project at UPPMAX. Note that the PI must be a senior scientist in Swedish academia, at least at the level of assistant professor (forskarassistent).

How do I apply for an account?

Use the user account application form to apply for an account belonging to a project at UPPMAX.
If you do not belong to a project you must first set up one, using the link above.
Note: When register for an account, you must use your official .uu.se e-mail address.

How do I specify which project I am running my job on?

I belong to more than one project. How do I specify which project I am running my job on?

You specify which project you are running in your job script.

If you use slurm (Kalkyl) you add the line: #SBATCH -A your_project_id_here

If you use sge (Grad) you add the line:  #$ -P your_project_id_here

See the User guides

for more details.

 

How can I see how much time there is left on my project?

To get an overview of how much of your project allocation that has been used, please use the projinfo command (a "module load uppmax" is needed). Please use the command projinfo -h to get details on usage.
With no flags given, projinfo will tell you your usage during the current month.

If you like a report for a time period different from the current month the command arguments differ between Kalkyl (running Slurm) and Grad (running SGE)

On SLURM on Kalkyl:

Usage in project testproj during the current year:

projinfo -y testproj 

Usage in project testproj during the specified two months:

projinfo -s 2010-02 -e 2010-03 testproj

Usage in your projects today until the moment you run the command:

projinfo -s today

The command extracts information from a system log of all finished jobs, and also asks the batch system about currently running jobs. For more details see the Kalkyl User Guide.

 

On SGE on Grad:

Usage in project testproj during the current year:

projinfo -y testproj

Usage in all my projects during month 4 (april)

projinfo -m 04

Usage in project testproj during the specified two months:

projinfo -b 2010-02 -e 2010-03 testproj
